Have a job where one of the holes is too large in the height of the Sheetrock opening. There is a metal stud to one side and it looks like the guy before me hacked the box off the stud. They want a receptacle in that location but the ears won't catch so that I can hold the OWB with Madison clips. I tried to put a screw through the side of the box into the stud but it just sucks the box in as the screw is obviously going it at an angle due to the fact you don't have a straight in shot due to the box.
I have used the Smart Box on wood studs in this situation when I have a Romex job so was wondering if there was something similar to this for working with metal studs and running MC.
Thanks
